>Well, despite our spotty statistics, I've been able to estimate that we've

>Feel free to use all or parts of the following in your report. I can

>The University Libraries provide an introduction to the Libraries'

>request of professors/instructors.  Every attempt is made to make these

>include a physical tour of the library, overviews or hands-on
>demonstrations of appropriate electronic resources (periodical indexes,
>online catalog, and Internet), and discussion of various library services
>students may need to obtain their materials.  During the 1996/97 academic
>year, 65 instructional sessions were done for Freshman English classes.
